Posted on 18th Nov 2022 by rohit kumar

The central government is going to build a frontier highway in the Northeast for Rs 40,000 crore to counter China's plans permanently. This highway, about 2 thousand kilometers long, will also prove to be the lifeline of Arunachal Pradesh and India's permanent ground position line in front of China. Talking of strategic importance, it will pass through the McMahon Line, the boundary line drawn between India and Tibet.

 

British Foreign Secretary Henry McMahon had presented it as a border and India considers it as the real border while China has been rejecting it. The construction of this highway will be done jointly by the Border Roads Organization (BRO) and the National Highway Authority. The army will provide logistic support. After Tawang, the Frontier Highway will go to Myanmar after East Kameng, West Siang, Desali, Dong, and Hawai.

 

this will be beneficial

 

Not only China, but Myanmar's border will also be safe.

 

It will help in stopping migration from the border area.

 

With the development of Vibrant Village around the highway, the ghost villages that China is setting up can be monitored.

 

McMahon will cross the line, create BRO-authority

Arunachal Pradesh already has two National Highways - Trans Arunachal Highway and East-West Industrial Corridor. All the corridors of the state will converge with this third highway. This will ensure road connectivity to remote areas.

 

Will connect the entire Arunachal

This highway will connect all the important strategic areas of Arunachal. In this, highway connectivity will be provided between Upper Subansiri, Dibang Valley, Chaglagam, and Kibithu via Vijayanagar to Mago-Thingbu of Tawang.

 

India deploys new landing ship and speedboats in Pangong Lake

The Army has deployed new landing ships and speed boats for patrolling the Pangong Tso Lake in eastern Ladakh. Due to this, the monitoring and patrolling power of the Indian Army have increased in the lake located on the Line of Actual Control (LAC) along the China border at an altitude of 14 thousand feet.

 

This is a counter-preparation for the deployment of the Chinese Army PLA in the region. Following the increase in Chinese military activities in the region in 2020, India is part of increasing its military capability and infrastructure development here.

 

The new landing craft has also been deployed at Sir Creek in Gujarat, facing Pakistan. The landing craft is capable of carrying 35 soldiers or a jeep and 12 personnel, while the speed boats can travel at 35 knots (65 km) per hour. At the beginning of 2021, two agreements were signed by the army for landing ships and speed boats. These were handed over to the Army in the second half of 2021.

During the inauguration of International Tourism Mart 2022 in Aizawl, Union Minister G Kishan Reddy said that the government has decided to set up a tourism task force for the North Eastern region.
